Dude you're gonna be as awesome as Quint in Jaws, the stories you can tell kids about how you lost your finger. I have a 4" scar on my chest as a result of a very, very drunken weekend with some friends in the south of France. Although all three of us have one (in varying degrees of gruesomeness, mine being the clear winner) as a bond of brotherhood, the other version of what happened is that I was protecting my wife's dignity from Mexican banditos and took a machete to the chest.

Also, the little bit of glove that you'll no longer need you can turn into a small pouch for storing nuts. God gives you lemons? Make tequila slammers.

Not to awesome for sure, but in the Brightside at least it was considerably a small piece. I grew up in a logging town where everyother person had at least 1 finger cut off and they manage just fine. Hope the rest of the healing goes better!

Thanks guys. Had a check up today and had the bandages removed and replace. All is looking well. They spoke of how they need to wrap the bandages in such a way that would shape the end of my finger correctly. Looks like a bit of a mess to me.

The middle finger had most of the dead flesh removed and appears to be healing as well as my little finger.
